    While it is good to see some of the victims we met in the series get a small portion of comfort from the sentencing of the Golden State Killer, the disconnect between McNamara's obsession and real police work is glaring.

    If you’re looking to see some catharsis from the victims of The Golden State Killer, then this special episode of I’ll Be Gone In The Dark will be satisfying. But if you’re looking for additional information about the case, you’ll likely be left disappointed.

    The special episode is at best an unnecessary addendum, and at worst a subtle undoing of some of what made “I’ll Be Gone in the Dark” such a standout.
